hoe, Angeles, May 21th. 18o8.
ce uttaciied by all persons to the
successful laying ofthe subnuirine teiegeaph Cable,
and the desire so generally felt by all to know
tlie particulars of the operations, indue'.: us to'
compile the following brief narriitive' trom the
Atlantic and Liigli-h pipci-*-, in which the detail
occupies several pages : —
Od the iotii of June, the telfe-graph^c squadron
set sail Iroin Plymouth ior ils destimt ion in mid-
ocean, U2 degrees west of Greenwich, where the
splice being made, the steamers wei'<" to start for
land. Tha A gj'.iij'ji'HUiii Wiis <-^cnrted by the Valorous, and the N,!igai*a hy tin* Gorgon.
On the 20th June, a terrific h tor id etttfse; such' Ss
is seldom experienced even on the stormy Atlantic, tossing the Agamemnon from side to side like
a mere plaything, delaying the making of tht
splice. From a writer in the London Tinies, \tt
take the following particular*-.■ —
Ou the morning of Saturday, the 26fb of June:
ail the preparations were completed for making
the fp'ice and commencing the great undertaking.
The end ofthe Niagara's cable waa sent on board
the Agamemnon, tlie splice was made, a bent six
pence was put in it lor luck, and at 2.50 G
wicta time, it was slowly lowered over the side and
disappeared forever. The weather was cold aud
foggy, with a stiff breeze and dismal sort of sleet,
aud. as there was no cheering or manifestation of
enthusiasm of any kind, ihe w!kole ceremony had
a most funereal effect, and seemed as solemn as if
we were burying a marine, or some other mortuary
task of the kind, equally cheerful and enlivening,
Itis needless making a long story lunger, so I
may state ut once, that when each ship had payed
out three miles or so, and they were getting well
apart, the cable broke ou boaid the Niagara,owing
to its overriding and getting oil' tin pully leadiug
on to the machine. The break was of course known
instantly, both vessels put about and returned ; a
fresh splice was made, ami again lowered over at
half-past 7. According lo ai range nieui, 100 fathoms were veered ont from each ship, and theu all
stood away on their course, at firs-t at two miles an
hour, aud .afterwards at four. Everything tlieu
went well—the machine working beautifully, at 32
revolutions per minute—the screw at 2(i—the cable runiug out easily at 5 and 5-£ miles ao hour,
the ship going four. The greatest strain upon the
dynamometer was 2.100 Ih. At 12 at midnight 21
nautical miles had beCo payed out- and tlie angle
ofthe cable witiTthe horizon had been raduced
considerably. At half-past three lorty miles
had gone, aud nothing could be more perfect
aud regular than the working of everything, -.""lieu suddenly, at 8.4Q a. m., on /Sunday, the 27th, Professor Thompson came on deck,
and reported a total break of continuity ; that (he
cable, iu fact, had parted, and, as was believed at
the time, Irom the Niagara.
The Agamemnon innuidiately put about, and on
the 28th rejoined the Niagara. The con espondeut
says ot the meeting :
While all were waitiug with impatience lor her
expiuuation of how she broke the cable, she eltic-
tnlied every one by running up the interrogatory,
'■How did the cable part ?" This V.;as astounding.
As soon as the boats could be lowered, Mr. Cyrus
Field; with iiie electricians from the Niagara,
came on hoard, and a comparison of logs showed
lhe paiuiul and mysterious fact, that at Ihe same
second of time each vessel discovered that a total
fractlire had latum place at a distance of certainly
nol less thau ten miles from each ship- as well as
could he judged, at the bottom of the ocean. The
logs on bolh sides were so clear as to the minute
ot t me. aud as lo lhe electrical testa showing not
merely leakage or defective insulation ot the wire,
hut a total fracture, that there was uo room left on
which to rest a moment's doubt ofthe certainty of
this most disheartening tact.
No time was ICBt, and by 7 o'clok that night thi
cable was again spliced and lowered ii*Jn 2000
fathoms wafer..
The cable, as before, payed out beautifully, and
nothing could have been more regular and more
easy than the working of evtny part, of the apparatus. At first, the ship's speed was ouly two knots,
" cable going 3 and 3| with a strain of 1500 lb.,
the horizontal angle averaging as low as 7, and
the vertical about Hi. By and by, however, the
speed wits increased to lour knots, the cable going-
live, at a strain of 2000 lb., and an angle ol Irom
12 to 15. At thia rate it was kept with trifling
variations, throughout almost tlie wlmie of .Monday night, and neither Mr. Uriglit, Mr. Canning,
nr Mr. Clifford' ever quitted the mactiines for au
is'tant. Towards the middle of the night, while
the rate of ship continued the eame, the speed at
which the cable payed outslackened nearly a knot
while the dynamometer indicated as low
as 1300 lb. This change could only bo accounted
for ou the supposition that the water had shallowed to a considerable extent, and that ihe vessel
was in iact passing over some submarine Ben Nevis of Skiddaw. After an interval of iihout an
hour, the strain and rate of progress* of the cable
agaiu increased, while the increase ofthe vertical
angle seemed to indicate that ihe wire was sinking down tin: side of a declivity. Beyond this
there was no variation throughout Monday night,

Cyrus \W Field, who, it may be proper to stale
here, is brother to Hon. Stephen J. Field, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of this State,
describes the feeling which pervaded all ou board
the Niagara while the cable was being laid, as one
of the most intense excitement.
Every man exerted himself.to the utmost to
achieve success in the work. Throughout the six
aud a half days the most perfect silence and atten
tion pervaded the men, lest a siugle moment ol
negligence should destroy the cable. Ou the ilr.-t
day alter lhe paying out began it waa fouud that
the cable was being payed out at a rate which,
in proportion to the distance run, would, if continued, have defeated the enterprise. This was
owing to the lact that the cable ou board the Niagara had caused so much local attraction as lu
seriously derange the compasses; rendering it impossible to steer tbe ship. Next day. Commander
Hay ofthe G;orgon being apprised ofthe fact, ran
ahead of the Niagara; steering iu the most direei
course for Trinity Bay. This lie continued to do
day and night until they arrived, never leaving
the deck except for a few moments, and verifyln^
his position by repeated observations of the situ,
moon (.nd stars.
When his arduous task was accomplished, his
eyes were swollen and suffused with blood from
loug loss of sleep, and he was almost prostrated
rom the "immense latigue which he had undergone. Without his assistance the cable would
have been exhausted long before the Niagara
reached land, and to his agency, therefore' the
ecess of the achievement is largely indebted.
On Wednesday morning, August llh, at 8 o'clock, laud appeared to the north-west about 35
dies distant. An hour later the Agamemnon
gualed that she had payed out !)25 mtleS of cable, being precisely tho same tjuautity as lhat
laid from the Niagara. At 7£ p. m. her Majesty's
teamer Porcupine hove in sight, and Capt, Otter,
icr commander, who had for some weeks heen engaged in surveying Trinity Bay and the Bay uf
Bull's Arm, boarded the Niagara to pilot her iuin
the harbor. At 8 P. M.,-Capt. Otter reported the
telegraph station nineteen miles olf. There had
been payed out from the Niagara 995 miles, seventeen fathoms.
As it would have periled the safety of the cable
to have waited for daylight before r suming opera ions, the steamer was kept right on through
the night. Capt. Otter, who is a skillful pilot, is
also a very prudent. Anticipating that the Niagara might arrive iu the night, he had caused
qoals to be station d up the bay, along the course
laid out for her, aud at a signal the men in them
kindled blazing torches, and the people alongshore lighted huge buifires to guide the mariner-"
on their way.
The Niagara, guided by her careful pilot, steamed slowly up the bay, and at i-£ o'clock on the
morning of Thursday, August Sth, she came to
anchor close to the shore, iu 17 fathoms of water,
having succeeded in her share of the great undertaking. She had payed out 1,013 mi.es, and telegraphic signals were constantly flowing through
the entire length.
Sir, Field landed near the telegraph station,
Trinity Bay; at two o'clock iu the morning, and
walked to the station house, halt a mile dislanl,
through the wilderness, uot a person being visible
on the beach. At the Telegraph House he found
the operators from London fast asleep, not one of
them expecting that the enterprise would succeed.
Indeed they had not unpacked their trunks, an'.i-
cipaticg that in a week or two ihey would be ordered back to London j tne Station House was unfinished, work upon it had ceased, and none of the
instruments had been prepared lor use. The us-
tonislnnent of the operators, wheu they learned
that the cable was laid, may be conceived. Al
2:45 i. H. a signal was received from the Agamemnon stating lhat fhe had payed 1,010 miles ol
cable. Mr. Field then telegraphed to the Asso
ciated Press the glad tidings oi success.
When day broke, the boats were all lowered,
and 1.300 fathoms of cable were carried ashore,
First Lieut. James H. North handed the shore end
to Capt. Hudson, who placed it on the beach. A
procession was then formed, headed by Capt. Hudson and Mr. North, followed by the officers of the
Niagara, Captains of lhe Gorgon aud Porcupine,
theii officers, crews, ai.d the crew of the Niagara.
Each taking hold of the cable, they marched up
from the beach lo the Telegraph Station House, a
distance ol half a mile, where they deposited Uie
end of the cable. Capi. Hodsun tlien offered up a
prayer aud a few remarks appropriate to the occasion, when the ceremony of landing terminated.
The ofiiceis aud crews thdi returned to their re-
-pective boats, leaching their vessels al six o'clock
:n the morning. The Gorgon and Porcupine oat-

a*ster had just occurred when the news i-pread over
Lhe whole At\\, creating a most painful ixcitement.
Mr^fftt'id, who has more at Btake in the enterprise than any member of the whole company,
nud who might; b« supposed to fuel ihe effects of
the failure more than any uue on board, proved
liimsuli nqual to the euooi^gouoy, Losing no time
iu vain revets he called a mi'L'llug nl uuce on
board tha Niagara, at which Capt. Hudson and"
the commanders of the other snips were present,
nrfd Ai which it w;>- rci-tflvi ;l to make a series oi
experiment** in view of tlio resumption of the uu-
dertaklng ihe following October, ofthe next (this)
year. These experiments wire intruded lo test
lhe practicability of splicing and laying the cablo
ffdm mid ocean, and it is enough to say lhat Ihey
were succeseluk
H.ivitig m dd the arrangi me.fs for these ex-
pcriunjiilV, unil iwoett Ined the gffiounf of cable
payed oui, Mr. field started for Fnglatidon board
ihe C'clopj', one ofthe British ships oi (he ""quad-

The news of tlie failOre had gut there before hiin,'
however, and the iliivctul's and shareholders m«1
him with what it would require a terrible latitude1
of expression lo call encouraging luiiks. A meeting of thi' Board wuj' iiusnedialely called, nt which,
Mr. Field Bet torth Ihe pro-pecs and conditions of
the enterprise, and shoW(.d lhat whatever doubts*
there might hafe been, (here could he none now
regarding its practical iiity.
He infused new hope into' the company, and «r-
rangluiiGiils were immediately entered into to renew lhe attempt during the present summer. 1
should state tbat at ihis time Mr. Field was simply a director, but at the particular and BpecUf
ri'-fuest ol the company, he subsequently accepted
the position of general i&tnager' His appointment tii this oliice was made when he was in tho'

of last January. But there are some oiher prima
which should be mentioned here as showing the'
iniiuie of Mr, Fie d's toniiuctiop with the undertaking. About six years ago he intereRefl himself lor the first time in telegraphic enterprises;
and with an energy that appears tu characterise
everything he itmletlakes, enter-d upon this new
field. Through his (Hurts an, associati'm fjaljed
'."The New Y. rk, Newfoundland and London Telegraph -Company.''' was organized for the pin pose
of laying a calle across the .Gull of St. La-nrenfeef
aud of connecting wilh the line which tne Atlantic Telegraph Company intended to lay between1
Europe and America, This latter company had
been organised, but ihe capital was uot subscribed.'
.Mr. Field determined, however, that the enterprise should out be delayed on this account, went
to L'nglatuJ and !n:ld meetings iu Loudou, Liverpool, Manchester and other places, wberej liy hill
speeches, he created such an enthusiasm, that in.
ihe cour.su ol a few H.e'jke, the whole amount of
the slock was taken.
He had previously obfaiued u charter from the
Colonial government of Newfoundland, granting
the American company ih'e exclusive privilege for
filly years, of inuni.'lg a telegraph acro.-s that
k-lnnd and fblOUgll any of I bti adjacent waters.'
In addition to Ihis, llie cofapuny were Secured the
interest on two hut.dred and fifty thousand dollars
fur fifty yeaiss and a present of fifty square miles
of land winch ihey were at liberty to si lent in any
' tbe island. There were othuf minor and
k-ss substantial lharksof favor bestowed upon the
pany through the efforts ol Mr. Field, by the"
Newfoundland Government, Charters had been'
previously gi-antid by iht. governments of Prince
El word Island and New Brunswick, also giving
the company exCiCsive privileges and bunch's.
Everything had been thus favorably settled td
pttre the way tot the great work of the ago.'.
Tli rough the stliiic manager, thy govt rnment.-. of
the tihiied .States and Gnat Britain were induced
to ;;raiit llic use of six naii .inif ships with which*
to pet lorni the tack of: ubim-rging the c ble.

umor,; tb«t had spread like wildiire about the
hip. Bui there.stood the machinery silent and
iver the stern wheel, swinging loosely to and fro,
lung the end of the parted telegraph cab.e.
It, seemed almost impossible to realize the fact that
dent so iuatantaueous and irremediable
should have occurred, aod of course a variety ot
ngenious suggesiions were instantly afloat,' Show-
ng most sjtislactorily how Ihe cable must and
ught to have broken.
After this mishap, those in charge of the
Agamemnon held a consultation, and concluded

All on buard Llie Niagaia unite in giving the

Cyrus \W Field, who, it may be proper to stale
here, is brother to Hon. Stephen J. Field, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of this State,
describes the feeling which pervaded all ou board
the Niagara while the cable was being laid, as one
of the most intense excitement.
Every man exerted himself.to the utmost to
achieve success in the work. Throughout the six
aud a half days the most perfect silence and atten
tion pervaded the men, lest a siugle moment ol
negligence should destroy the cable. Ou the ilr.-t
day alter lhe paying out began it waa fouud that
the cable was being payed out at a rate which,
in proportion to the distance run, would, if continued, have defeated the enterprise. This was
owing to the lact that the cable ou board the Niagara had caused so much local attraction as lu
seriously derange the compasses; rendering it impossible to steer tbe ship. Next day. Commander
Hay ofthe G;orgon being apprised ofthe fact, ran
ahead of the Niagara; steering iu the most direei
course for Trinity Bay. This lie continued to do
day and night until they arrived, never leaving
the deck except for a few moments, and verifyln^
his position by repeated observations of the situ,
moon (.nd stars.
When his arduous task was accomplished, his
eyes were swollen and suffused with blood from
loug loss of sleep, and he was almost prostrated
rom the "immense latigue which he had undergone. Without his assistance the cable would
have been exhausted long before the Niagara
reached land, and to his agency, therefore' the
ecess of the achievement is largely indebted.
On Wednesday morning, August llh, at 8 o'clock, laud appeared to the north-west about 35
dies distant. An hour later the Agamemnon
gualed that she had payed out !)25 mtleS of cable, being precisely tho same tjuautity as lhat
laid from the Niagara. At 7£ p. m. her Majesty's
teamer Porcupine hove in sight, and Capt, Otter,
icr commander, who had for some weeks heen engaged in surveying Trinity Bay and the Bay uf
Bull's Arm, boarded the Niagara to pilot her iuin
the harbor. At 8 P. M.,-Capt. Otter reported the
telegraph station nineteen miles olf. There had
been payed out from the Niagara 995 miles, seventeen fathoms.
As it would have periled the safety of the cable
to have waited for daylight before r suming opera ions, the steamer was kept right on through
the night. Capt. Otter, who is a skillful pilot, is
also a very prudent. Anticipating that the Niagara might arrive iu the night, he had caused
qoals to be station d up the bay, along the course
laid out for her, aud at a signal the men in them
kindled blazing torches, and the people alongshore lighted huge buifires to guide the mariner-"
on their way.
The Niagara, guided by her careful pilot, steamed slowly up the bay, and at i-£ o'clock on the
morning of Thursday, August Sth, she came to
anchor close to the shore, iu 17 fathoms of water,
having succeeded in her share of the great undertaking. She had payed out 1,013 mi.es, and telegraphic signals were constantly flowing through
the entire length.
Sir, Field landed near the telegraph station,
Trinity Bay; at two o'clock iu the morning, and
walked to the station house, halt a mile dislanl,
through the wilderness, uot a person being visible
on the beach. At the Telegraph House he found
the operators from London fast asleep, not one of
them expecting that the enterprise would succeed.
Indeed they had not unpacked their trunks, an'.i-
cipaticg that in a week or two ihey would be ordered back to London j tne Station House was unfinished, work upon it had ceased, and none of the
instruments had been prepared lor use. The us-
tonislnnent of the operators, wheu they learned
that the cable was laid, may be conceived. Al
2:45 i. H. a signal was received from the Agamemnon stating lhat fhe had payed 1,010 miles ol
cable. Mr. Field then telegraphed to the Asso
ciated Press the glad tidings oi success.
When day broke, the boats were all lowered,
and 1.300 fathoms of cable were carried ashore,
First Lieut. James H. North handed the shore end
to Capt. Hudson, who placed it on the beach. A
procession was then formed, headed by Capt. Hudson and Mr. North, followed by the officers of the
Niagara, Captains of lhe Gorgon aud Porcupine,
theii officers, crews, ai.d the crew of the Niagara.
Each taking hold of the cable, they marched up
from the beach lo the Telegraph Station House, a
distance ol half a mile, where they deposited Uie
end of the cable. Capi. Hodsun tlien offered up a
prayer aud a few remarks appropriate to the occasion, when the ceremony of landing terminated.
The ofiiceis aud crews thdi returned to their re-
-pective boats, leaching their vessels al six o'clock
:n the morning. The Gorgon and Porcupine oat-

a*ster had just occurred when the news i-pread over
Lhe whole At\\, creating a most painful ixcitement.
Mr^fftt'id, who has more at Btake in the enterprise than any member of the whole company,
nud who might; b« supposed to fuel ihe effects of
the failure more than any uue on board, proved
liimsuli nqual to the euooi^gouoy, Losing no time
iu vain revets he called a mi'L'llug nl uuce on
board tha Niagara, at which Capt. Hudson and"
the commanders of the other snips were present,
nrfd Ai which it w;>- rci-tflvi ;l to make a series oi
experiment** in view of tlio resumption of the uu-
dertaklng ihe following October, ofthe next (this)
year. These experiments wire intruded lo test
lhe practicability of splicing and laying the cablo
ffdm mid ocean, and it is enough to say lhat Ihey
were succeseluk
H.ivitig m dd the arrangi me.fs for these ex-

payed oui, Mr. field started for Fnglatidon board
ihe C'clopj', one ofthe British ships oi (he ""quad-

The news of tlie failOre had gut there before hiin,'
however, and the iliivctul's and shareholders m«1
him with what it would require a terrible latitude1
of expression lo call encouraging luiiks. A meeting of thi' Board wuj' iiusnedialely called, nt which,
Mr. Field Bet torth Ihe pro-pecs and conditions of
the enterprise, and shoW(.d lhat whatever doubts*
there might hafe been, (here could he none now
regarding its practical iiity.
He infused new hope into' the company, and «r-
rangluiiGiils were immediately entered into to renew lhe attempt during the present summer. 1
should state tbat at ihis time Mr. Field was simply a director, but at the particular and BpecUf
ri'-fuest ol the company, he subsequently accepted
the position of general i&tnager' His appointment tii this oliice was made when he was in tho'
United States, and as soon as he secured the con-^
sent ot ihe Government giving Mr. Everett, the
Chief E gineer of the Navy, leave oF absence, be
returned to England, where he arrived Un tie Kith
of last January. But there are some oiher prima
which should be mentioned here as showing the'
iniiuie of Mr, Fie d's toniiuctiop with the undertaking. About six years ago he intereRefl himself lor the first time in telegraphic enterprises;
and with an energy that appears tu characterise
everything he itmletlakes, enter-d upon this new
field. Through his (Hurts an, associati'm fjaljed
'."The New Y. rk, Newfoundland and London Telegraph -Company.''' was organized for the pin pose
of laying a calle across the .Gull of St. La-nrenfeef
aud of connecting wilh the line which tne Atlantic Telegraph Company intended to lay between1
Europe and America, This latter company had
been organised, but ihe capital was uot subscribed.'
.Mr. Field determined, however, that the enterprise should out be delayed on this account, went
to L'nglatuJ and !n:ld meetings iu Loudou, Liverpool, Manchester and other places, wberej liy hill
speeches, he created such an enthusiasm, that in.
ihe cour.su ol a few H.e'jke, the whole amount of
the slock was taken.
He had previously obfaiued u charter from the
Colonial government of Newfoundland, granting
the American company ih'e exclusive privilege for
filly years, of inuni.'lg a telegraph acro.-s that
k-lnnd and fblOUgll any of I bti adjacent waters.'
In addition to Ihis, llie cofapuny were Secured the
interest on two hut.dred and fifty thousand dollars

of land winch ihey were at liberty to si lent in any

pany through the efforts ol Mr. Field, by the"
Newfoundland Government, Charters had been'
previously gi-antid by iht. governments of Prince
El word Island and New Brunswick, also giving
the company exCiCsive privileges and bunch's.
Everything had been thus favorably settled td
pttre the way tot the great work of the ago.'.
Tli rough the stliiic manager, thy govt rnment.-. of

It, seemed almost impossible to realize the fact that
dent so iuatantaueous and irremediable
should have occurred, aod of course a variety ot
ngenious suggesiions were instantly afloat,' Show-
ng most sjtislactorily how Ihe cable must and
ught to have broken.
After this mishap, those in charge of the
Agamemnon held a consultation, and concluded
to the place of rendezvous, tibc put
about, aud after experiencing 1 ery roiigh weather
which, however, she was very much belter able to
